    I'd be interested to know where you found cheaper 1605 ballscrews. A quick scan of Fred's BST Automation's site has 1000mm long ballscrew sets of 5 and 10mm pitch at $148 AUD and $135 respectively, including delivery to Australia. Interestingly he also has 1616 screws for those wanting an ultra-fast machine.

    Ebay.
    850mm 1605 screws are just £30, and are delivered from the UK so no need to worry about getting stung with import tax.
    To my in experienced eye they seem ok. Were packaged well, and dont appear to be to bent.
